Taylor Saved on the River

Level 21 : 8,000/16,000, 60 ante

It's been pretty slow going since the elimination of Viatcheslav Ortynskiy; in fact, min-raises seem to be enough to pick up the blinds. After about six hands of not seeing a flop, Roch Cousineau opened for 38,000 from middle position only to have, Paul Taylor three-bet the pot from the cutoff. The button and blinds both got out of the way and Cousineau moved in. Taylor called off and the cards were turned up:

Showdown
Taylor: {A-Diamonds}{2-Spades}{J-Diamonds}{8-Clubs}
Cousineau: {A-Hearts}{A-Clubs}{6-Spades}{4-Diamonds}

The {6-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}{10-Diamonds} flop kept Cousineau ahead with aces and tens, but the {8-Spades} turn did give Taylor low outs. Lucky for him, the {4-Spades} river was one of them and he took down half the pot to stay alive.
